Microsoft's new Xbox Home UI is rolling out on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles
A new Home experience (System Update) is rolling out to Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles, Microsoft has revealed. The new Xbox Home UI Update helps you find new games, revisit your favorite games, join communities, and customize your Xbox experience.
Microsoft's new Xbox Home UI improvements are the result of a collaborative effort by Team Xbox —including engineers, designers, researchers and others. Based on player feedback, this update helps you find new games to play, revisit your favorite games, join communities of gamers, and customize your experience.
The new Xbox Home features:
- Makes it easy to go to your Library, the Microsoft Store, Xbox Game Pass, Search, and Settings at the very top of your Home by introducing a quick access menu.
- Creates more space for your personalized background by simplifying the layout and putting the games you recently played and other content and apps towards the bottom of the screen.
- Adds an option to change your background to match the game you are highlighting in the recently played list.
- Improves game discovery by introducing lists of games curated and personalized for you.
- Allows you to customize your experience by pinning your favorite games, curated groups, and system groups like Quick Resume to Home.
- Helps you find what’s going on in your community through the updated Friends & Community Updates row.
- Shows you what media apps and content are available to you via a Watch & Listen spotlight and list of entertainment apps
The new Home experience is rolling out now to a subset of all Xbox consoles. This means that some Xbox owners will need to wait a few weeks to get their hands on it.
